Default Re: Wet Black Soot Exhaust

it's been a while but on my 34 coupe the tail pipe ends were really black & sooty & the car did not run very well although it started & idled fine. That was whem\n I purchased it around 06 so forgive my PP memory. To get to the point the P O had an electric fuel pump & no regulator. I installed a regulator adjusted the float level & installed a new fuel hose from the regulator to carb & bumped the timing one notch. I had already installed a heavier battery cable 1/0 from the trunk located 6V battery to the starter as P O had 12V type wires & cable. Car runs as smooth as a well oiled machine can run. I do use MMO & marine sta-bil in the gas. Make driving a pleasure for sure. Oh no more black sooty exhaust tips.
